    Everyone of those storefronts is at a more human scale than a walmart is. You'd think a leftist instance of all places would be the only place where I don't have to see a bunch of anglos frothing at the mouth after seeing a couple tall buildings.

      The thing that sucks the most in the video that I see so far 7 mins in is the same thing that sucks the most anywhere: car-centric urban planning.

        What you don't see is each of these residential units has a subway entrance within a 5-10 minute walk

          I live on a 2nd floor apartment with adjacent roadside parking and and near a moderate traffic street. I am so fucking sick of hearing cars. Cars to wake me up at night. Cars to wake me up in the morning. Cars to ruin the enjoyment of opening window on a fair weather day. So if I see residential windows above street traffic I have automatic revulsion, all else equal.
